There is a lot of anti-abortion sentiment to be found on Yahoo and regardless of what anyone thinks on EITHER side of the issue, I just have to wonder if the ones that are the biggest advocates of "murder prevention" ever adopt these babies from the social services system?

This is not meant to be an explosive question aimed at getting anyone fired up about the issue of abortion. I simply would like to see some statistics or hear stories of gung-ho pro-life advocates who have such passion for the issue that they adopt (or provide foster care to) these children that they try to save.

I'm just interested to know what happens AFTER the birth.

It's pretty simple. My own opinion is that allowing your own kids to get fat is a form of child abuse, just like feeding your dogs until they are obese is animal abuse. Do you agree, or not? And why?

Thank you.

About a year ago Dr's advised me to have an abortion. I found out I was pregnant while I was in the hospital because of a heart attack. My mom and my doctors both warned me of the risks in getting pregnant, they basically made it sound as if an abortion was the only option. My boyfriend agreed for other reasons. I feel like I never even voiced my opinion. He paid and I went I got it done. Right after I was sent to Mayo Clinic, hundreds of miles away from home for medical treatment and my boyfriend and I broke up. I am now so much healthier, physically. Mentally, I am a mess. I have been suffering from severe depression and cannot stop thinking about how I would have a little baby now if I hadn't gone through with it. I want a baby so badly. My boyfriend wants me to move back in with him. Am I wrong in wanting to do so, and wanting to get pregnant again??? If I do, will it help me from all the pain and regrets? If someone wants to help, there is a lot more to this story.

Sometimes I serve hot food like soup, noodles, or rice, on my toddler's plastic ware, notably those plastic cartoon plates and bowls. Does it pose any health risks to the kids using these materials? I.e. dioxin poisoning or so forth?

I have recently posted a question or two, and have been suprised by the quality of answers. I am neutral on the issue of administering spankings, as I was brought up with them and haven't developed any real problems from them. My wife, however, is adamant that spankings be adminstered in cases of misbehaviour... how can I spank my children without hurting them? I'm looking for specific techniques and positions. If you have any tips/ suggestions, I'd love to hear them. Thanks,
-Jim

I have a daughter of 2 months old whom I breastfeed. My 3 year old gets incredibly jealous of her and wants me to breast feed him too. I've read up on the subject extensively, but thought I'd ask around.

I told my husband this morning when he got up to go get Natasha out of bed, that we were going to have double the trouble in 9 months. So there for all you people that answered my question I got it solved. He wasn't as excited as with Natasha. I think he will enjoy being a father of two though. I don't know what I am having so please boy and girl names.

I took my son for his 3 yr check up in July and the doctor could not clearly understand what he was saying. Doctor said "His speech isn't very clear but it's not time to worry yet" It suprised me to hear him say this since I am with my son all day everyday and understand every word he says. Then I started noticing when we were out that a lot of people don't understand him. Mostly men or my single friends .. just about all the "mommy's" I know seem to know exactly what he is saying. I have tried several times to see if he is mixing letters or anything and I don't think so. .. he is just kind of quite and runs his words together. Any other moms out there with this experience? He speaks in full sentences even paragraphs and will say hilarious things like "that's pretty funny isn't it?" or "hey guys whats going on?" like he is all grown up or something. What age should boys be speaking clearly? Should I be working on his speech with him? It's hard since I already understand it..
